Original broadcaster Channel 4 is yet to confirm the news but the potential announcement has brough back memories of '90s audiences screaming at their televisions as contestants would battle against time to break out of ‘zones’. Hopefully, with crystal in hand.

Since the TV show took off, many businesses have tried to replicate the success of the show with their own live escape room games .

Liverpool now has five of its own.

Each game is an experience for groups, families, students, friends and corporate teams.

They are great for bonding, team building sessions or just a bit of fun.
